Can I make LibreOffice default program for all files

Question

I have winXP LibreOffice and MS office installed.

How do I make LibreOffice the default opening program for all of its know document types? I know that I can change one extension at a time. But is there a way to change all of them?

I want LibreOffice to open .doc .xls and ... (I do not know all of them)

Answer 1

from here:

please try a 'Custom Setup', see
→ Installation of LibreOffice 3.3 on Windows
http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/installation/windows/
especially:
- Dialog Box #6: Choice of Typical or Custom Installation
- Dialog Box #8: Choice for File Type Associations

You may start from 'Add or Remove Programs' > 'LibreOffice...' > 'Modify',
or
(unpacked *.exe file) 'libreoffice33.msi' > right-click 'Install' > 'Modify'.

Answer 2

'Modify' worked for me. Thanks!
